"2nd album originally released in 1978 on Deptford Fun City. Who would have expected from the band of the quintessential The Image Has Cracked a follow-up as avant-garde abstraction that challenges P.I.L's Second Edition for absolute left-field swing? Vibing Up The Senile Man is closer to free-improvisation and avant-garde jazz (without a punk anthem in sight) and with a dub edge to some of the tracks. Liner notes. Original artwork."

Catalog #: GET 1007P
Picture Disc LP (180 gram). "This ESP-Disk release was recorded during a tour of New York State colleges at the peak of the free-jazz revolution.

Title: Music From The Spheres
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: LP
Price: $20.00
Catalog #: GET 1043
"Alto saxophonist Sonny Simmons was one of the most talented (if unfortunately lesser known) free jazz musicians of the 1960s. Born in Oakland, CA, Simmons began playing alto sax as a teenager in the early '50s and spent his early years collaborating with Prince Lasha and Charles Mingus. Except for a brief stint in New York in the early '60s, where he recorded with Elvin Jones and Eric Dolphy, Simmons spent most of his life in California where he met and married trumpet player Barbara Donald (featured on this album). His Music From the Spheres, recorded for ESP-Disk in 1966, with Michael Cohen on piano, Juney Booth on bass and Jim Zitro on drums, represents one of the highlights of his career. After almost completely disappearing from the jazz scene for nearly 20 years, Simmons made an amazing comeback in the early '90s with his brilliant Ancient Ritual."

Catalog #: GET 1046
"Recorded live at the Cellar Café NYC, June 14th 1964, during the same period in which Ayler recorded the earth-shattering Spiritual Unity with Gary Peacock on bass and Sonny Murray on drums. There are distinct similarities on the two recordings in that Ayler's most famous theme Spirits, Wizard, Ghosts are adapted although the energy & variation within the themes is extraordinary. 'The beauty of his music seemed a triumph of instinct over spirit, a heart-rending cry, exuding all the weakness, contradictions, joy of human being -- a kind of desperate god-seeking which necessarily created it's own techniques. Albert Ayler triggered the awakening of a forgotten sensibility, which for many listeners, became unbearable in its implacable lucidity.' (Bernard Lairet, from the original liner notes).

"Although nearly 40 years have passed since the release of this album for ESP-Disk in 1966, Chicago-born pianist / composer Burton Greene still considers it to be one of his best recordings. All compositions are written by Greene and feature Marion Brown on alto sax, Henry Grimes on bass, Dave Grant and Tom Price on percussion and Frank Smith on tenor sax. Greene made his way to New York City in 1962 just as the free jazz movement was beginning to gain momentum. The following year he and bassist Alan Silva formed the Free Form Improvisation Ensemble, often considered the first spontaneous composition group. Greene has remained committed to music over the past four decades, most recently exploring his Eastern European Jewish roots with various klezmer-jazz projects."

Catalog #: GET 1084
"Bassist Ronnie Boykins is perhaps best known for his work in Sun Ra's Arkestra, of which he was an intrinsic member for nearly a decade. His inimitable bass style can be heard on all of Ra's most significant recordings, and Ra had a difficult time finding someone to fill Boykins' shoes when he left the Arkestra in 1966. His 1975 self-titled release, featuring all original material, is from his post Ra period and represents one of the last great releases in the ESP-Disk catalogue. Featuring Joe Ferguson on tenor sax and flute, Monty Waters and James Vass on alto and soprano sax, Daoud Haroom on trombone, and Art Lewisand George Avaloz on percussion. Also includes various bells and hand shaken instruments played by all musicians."


Artist: POMERANCE, ERICA
Title: You Used To Think
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: LP
Price: $20.00
Catalog #: GET 1099
"Recorded at the tail end of 1968, this densely packed album, rooted in blues-laden acid folk, is gradually dominated by a more free-form, jazz-influenced style of vocal innovation which brings the album to its frantic climax. While remaining firmly linked to a lyrical base, Pomerance's primitive wails and shrieks shatter the traditional acid folk mold. Singing in French on 'The Slippery Morning', the versatile vocalist is also responsible for the rhythm guitar and hand drumming heard on the eastern influenced 'We Came Via'. Original artwork. 180 gram HQ vinyl."


Artist: AVENGERS, THE
Title: Zero Hour
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: LP
Price: $15.00
Catalog #: GET 110
"This full-length LP, recorded live at the Old Waldorf in San Francisco on June 13, 1979, is one of the last surviving recordings of one of the greatest punk bands to ever walk the earth. Just ten days after this amazing performance, which along with impassioned versions of some of the band's more notorious songs: 'The American In Me' and 'Corpus Christi', also includes three songs that have never been officially released 'Misery' (AKA 'Finger On The Trigger'), 'Zero Hour' and 'Time To Die', the Avengers were no more. Leaving 20 years of dust to collect on these tapes before they were finally discovered by our treasure hunters here at Get Back. Finally available for the first time ever with new liner notes by Avengers front woman and punk legend Penelope Houston."


Artist: SIMPLY SAUCER
Title: Cyborgs Revisited LP
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: LP
Price: $15.00
Catalog #: GET 111
"Simply Saucer was Canada's first proto-punk band. Emerging in 1974 from the industrial city of Hamilton, Ontario, the quartet created a distinct and original sound that was decidedly out of step with the musical climate of the day...edgy rock & roll that was a combination of early '70s punk pre-cursors (Velvet Underground, Stooges, Modern Lovers), krautrock (ala Can, Neu, early Kraftwerk) and UK prog/psyche (Hawkind, Pink Fairies, Syd Barrett)...Although the only material released while the band existed was a two-song 45 rpm single, a 1974 recording session and a 1975 live set were collected together posthumously and released...in late 1989...Now long out of print, this newly re-mastered, expanded reissue is the first legitimate re-release of this material in more than a decade. Hailed as the 'best Canadian album of all time."

Title: Beach Blvd.
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: CD
Price: $16.50
Catalog #: GET 114CD
In order to cash in on the great popularity of a current TV show, the infamous Posh Boy hooks up with Get Back to remind you about an album that should have been so much easier to forget. Does contain a second-rate version of "Meat House" (immortalized by Negative Trend one year earlier), so one point for that. "No album captured the early Orange County, California punk sound like the Posh Boy label's 1979 historic Beach Blvd compilation. Featuring bands like the Simpletones, The Crowd and Rick L Rick (F-WORD!)."


Artist: MOTORHEAD
Title: Another Perfect Day
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: LP
Price: $15.00
Catalog #: GET 116
"Originally released in 1983, this was the first Motörhead album not to feature Fast Eddie Clarke on guitar (who left over an argument regarding Lemmy's collaboration with Wendy O. of the Plasmatics) and the first and only album to feature Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian 'Robbo' Robertson, who was recruited immediately to finish the tour. Although Robbo brought more hard rock elements into the mix -- he also was the mastermind behind the beyond-classic 'Shine', which alone is worth the purchase of this LP. But it also includes classic tracks like 'I Got Mine' and 'Rock It'."


Artist: F-WORD!
Title: Like It Or Not (Live!)
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: CD
Price: $16.50
Catalog #: GET 117CD
"F-WORD were the first L.A. punk band to release an album. Their 1978 debut was also their only record, since they disbanded when Dutch Schultz/Will Shatter (bass) and Steve EffeteDePace (drums) formed Flipper. Singer Rik L. Rik went on to SoCal punk rock notoriety. Trademark Posh Boy sound for these pioneers of Californian fast pop punk."
